At BMO Capital Markets we realize that raising capital can be a daunting prospect. We have worked hard to establish our reputation as the Canadian capital introduction leader. By recognizing that each fund has different needs we have developed a multi-pronged capital introduction program designed to help each of our funds gain exposure to potential investors:

• Our exciting “Six in the City” events have provided our prime brokerage clients with exposure to hundreds of potential investors. This well-known event is similar to speed-dating for hedge funds and occupies a special niche in the Canadian scene.
• We have developed relationships with a wide variety of investors including institutions, fund of funds and high net worth individuals. These investors attend our events and look to us as a source of information about hedge funds employing Canadian strategies.
• In order to provide our hedge fund clients with the maximum number of opportunities to meet new investors, we form strategic alliances to gain access to a diversified source of investors. This generally takes the form of events in the U.S., Canada or any other geographic location that offers attractive opportunities for our funds.
• Our latest initiative is a hedge fund catalogue which is updated quarterly and sent to a list of hundreds of hedge funds investors. All of our prime brokerage clients are invited to participate.
